 Emergency Bandage
Combat proven first-aid device for the staunching of blood flow from traumatic hemorrhagic wounds in pre-hospital emergency situations. This internationally patented, FDA approved bandage is the ideal solution for emergency treatment, when every second counts.
The product consolidates multiple first-aid devices such as a primary dressing, pressure applicator, secondary dressing and a foolproof closure apparatus to secure the bandage in place, all within one unit. The Emergency Bandage is designed for quick and easy application by professional and non-professional caregivers, injured soldier, combat medic, or untrained first responder personnel to provide effective, multi-functional treatment.
The Emergency Bandage’s sterile, non-adherent pad applies pressure to any site, is easily wrapped, secured and has an additional application, similar to a tourniquet, to further constrict blood-flow. The product is so easy to use that even an injured person can self-apply the bandage with one hand.

Efficient Blood Staunching Capability/ Ease of
Operation
-
The sterile, non-adherent pad is placed on the
wound.
-
The application of direct pressure to the wound site is
achieved by wrapping the elasticized woven leader over the topside
of the bandage pad where the specially designed pressure bar
is situated. The pressure bar is designed to readily accept the
wrapping leader.
-
After engagement of the pressure bar, wrapping the
leader in any direction around the limb or body part and onto the
pressure bar forces the pressure bar down onto the pad
creating the direct pressure needed to bring about homeostasis.
-
The pressure bar, in addition to its primary
function, facilitates bandaging. The elastic bandage uses the rigid shape
of the pressure bar to change direction while bandaging, thus
affording the caregiver more options for effective dressing of the wound.
-
Subsequent wrappings of the leader secures and
maintains the pad in place over the wound, and by covering all the
edges of the pad acts as a sterile secondary dressing. The bandage
leader is woven wide and will not bunch up or twist itself into a
rope.
-
The closure system of the bandage is multi-functional yet
simple, quick, and familiar. Situated at the end of the leader is
a closure bar (dowel with hooking clips) at each end to secure the
wrapping leader the same way that a pen is secured in a shirt
pocket. The closure bar holds the bandage securely in place over
the wound site.
-
If additional pressure is required the closure bar
is easily removed from its normal closure position and inserted between
previous layers of the leader directly above the protruding
pressure bar and rotated. This rotation acts to screw down the
pressure bar onto the wound to exert blood-staunching pressure. The
closure bar is used as before to secure the dressing.
